Resumen de Partitioned Simulation of Fluid-Structure Interaction
Joris Degroote
In this review article, the focus is on partitioned simulation techniques for strongly coupled fluid-structure interaction problems, especially on techniques which use at least one of the solvers as a black box. First, a number of analyses are reviewed to explain why Gauss�Seidel coupling iterations converge slowly or not at all for fluid-structure interaction problems with strong coupling. This provides the theoretical basis for the fast convergence of quasi-Newton and multi-level techniques. Second, several partitioned techniques that couple two black-box solvers are compared with respect to implementation and performance. Furthermore, performance comparisons between partitioned and monolithic techniques are examined. Subsequently, two similar techniques to couple a black-box solver with an accessible solver are analyzed. In addition, several other techniques for fluid-structure interaction simulations are studied and various methods to take into account deforming fluid domains are discussed.
